compress 4.1 file deletion fixes

Sorry, I forgot to mention it.  It's a unified diff, produced by GNU
diff 1.15.  It's like context format except that it omits duplicate
context lines to save space.  If you can anonymous ftp,
prep.ai.mit.edu:pub/gnu/patch-2.0.12u4.tar.Z is a version of patch
that recognizes unified diffs.  If not, here is a short program called
unipatch that converts unified diffs to context diffs.  It came from
comp.sources.misc "v14i070: Unified context diff tools" plus a patch
in comp.sources.bugs.  You'll likely be seeing more unified diffs on
the net as time goes on, so it's worth while having programs that can
deal with them.
